I'm changing my 91 to 85-90 style, and from my researching the only thing that needs to be changed is the bumper cover (obviously) and the impact absorber.

Where you trying to buy it from GM? I can't see it being that expensive from a junkyard or ebay.

Don't even think about getting it from GM brand new!!!
Just do a search on ebay once in a while to see if someone sells one. Although the shipping might be kindda pricey, so just go to a junkyard near you.
Good luck!

Hey, just remembered, www.car-part.com
They have a couple of them for $200, one for $150!!!
They call it front bumper assembly.
